Cavaliers vs Hawks

    • Time: 8 p.m.
    • TV: WUAB, Peachtree.TV
    • Analyst: Quinn Allen

    Combo: 5.90x

    • Cavaliers moneyline
    • Over 237.5
    • Evan Mobley Over 9.5 rebounds

    I'm leaning towards a high-scoring game along with a Cleveland win and Evan Mobley making his presence felt inside in my Cavaliers vs. Hawks prediction.

    Both teams are averaging around 120 ppg, and neither defense has been particularly convincing. Atlanta just surrendered 129 points to Miami, while Cleveland has the personnel to exploit the Hawks inside. With both teams on a back-to-back, tired legs could lead to more defensive breakdowns.

    Mobley has finished with 12, 10, and 10 rebounds across his last three games, and he's averaging 9.3 boards overall. The Hawks have allowed 60 boards per contest across their previous three appearances while allowing 10.3 to opposing power forwards.

    Kings vs Pelicans

      • Time: 8 p.m.
      • TV: NBCS-California, Pelicans+
      • Analyst: Quinn Allen

      Combo: 5.30x

      • Pelicans -5.5
      • Under 236.5
      • Dejounte Murray Over 5.5 assists

      I'm also leaning Under 236.5 points here in my Kings vs. Pelicans prediction. 

      Sacramento is averaging just 107.8 ppg, while New Orleans managed only 91 points against the Nuggets on Wednesday. The Pelicans are playing on the second night of a back-to-back, and fatigue could affect their offensive efficiency. I expect a relatively low-scoring affair.

      Dejounte Murray has been New Orleans' top facilitator, averaging 6.3 dimes per night. We're getting 5.5 at Poly, which offers value as part of this combo. Murray has cashed the Over in three of his four appearances this season, and the Kings are allowing the fourth-most assists per game.

      Grizzlies vs Trail Blazers

        Combo: 6.00x

        • Under 233.5
        • Damian Lillard Over 3.5 rebounds
        • Cam Boozer Over 3.5 assists

        This game is unlikely to feature much easy offense in my Grizzlies vs. Trail Blazers prediction. Both teams rank Top-12 in defensive rating and neither team ranks in the top half of the league in pace.

        It’ll be a slower, methodical game with lots of contested shots. That’ll help provide more rebound opportunities for Damian Lillard, who has consistently grabbed 4+ rebounds when getting anywhere close to regular minutes.

        Cam Boozer averages double-digit potential assists per game, trailing only Ty Jerome among Grizzlies players. He is being trusted as a primary playmaker, and he has the passing ability and reads to find lanes in the half-court.
